Lawful Metal Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Rockets keep their top 4 pick. Thank the gods edit Detroit gets #1 Rockets #2 Cavs #3 Raptors #4 So are the Pistons gonna Darko the pick and let the Rockets get Cade?

Contentious C Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Well, good to see the David Stern Memorial Small Market Steering Committee is on the floor tonight in uniform.

Jiji Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Barkley was right. Milwaukee in first gear, regular season mode and it's still a tied game with 5 to go. If they can get Middleton, Holiday, and Giannis all playing well at the same time it's over for everybody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southofheavy Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 (edited) The Hawks are for real, and if they aren't, they think they are. Regardless, they aren't scared of anyone. I'm really, really hoping for a Hawks/Suns final. Edited June 24, 2021 by southofheavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, because who were they going to get that was better, but I feel like McMillan is only a relatively incremental improvement over someone like Doc Rivers. Compared to Budenholzer, he may as well be playing 7th-dimensional chess. Funny how being an actual great coach, being rewarded for being "great", and being successful can be 3 different things. Sure, it's a league where talent wins out above all else, but if the Clips somehow win a title, no one is going to point out Ty Lue's contribution to two quite different title teams. They'll just chirp about LeBron and Kawhi. On the other hand, I thought the Suns hiring Monty Williams was a great move for them, and it's sure as Hell looking that way; adding Chris Paul just accelerated their timetable. Then there's Bud & Thibs, who are "GENUISES~!" but will likely cry themselves to sleep with their COTY awards and never even make a Finals appearance.

Brian Fowler Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 McMillan is a guy who most years got results that are better than his team has the talent for. The Pacers fired him for getting swept in the first round every year, but he was doing it with a team that shouldn't have been getting close to the playoffs.
